Too bad. Sorry I missed this yesterday. I was too busy playing....and whining.
A KC based group or effort is a must. Someone with non-profit/charity experience could really do something with this. The corporate sponsorship would be a big boost, and I've certainly witnessed their support for less worthy causes. Surely, that can happen.
It would just take the right person to get this thing established. Unfortunately, I don't know who that would be.
